Jim Carrey as Joe Biden and Maya Rudolph as Kamala Harris during the “Biden Victory” Cold Open on the most recent episode of “Saturday Night Live.”
Jim Carreys Joe Biden channeled Ace Ventura to skewer Donald Trump with a drawn out looooser dig in a Saturday Night Live cold open that was largely a celebration.
It was a strange confluence of events with SNL addressing a Biden victory the same day the race for president was called.
Maya Rudolphs Kamala Harris managed to slip into a white suit similar to what the real Harris wore in her first vice presidential remarks just hours earlier.
The audience went wild as Rudolphs Harris listed all her firsts: First female, first Black, first Indian-American, and the first biracial vice president.
If any of that terrifies you, I dont give a funt, Rudolph said. Also my husband will be the first second gentleman, and hes Jewish so, between us, we check more boxes than a disqualified ballot.
Alec Baldwin turned up in what could be his last appearance as Trump, which Baldwin has repeatedly said cant happen fast enough.
I was reelected president of the United States, he announced. But of course they are trying to steal the election away from me.
White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany (Chloe Fineman) popped up with a red map that Baldwin said proved his red wave victory until McEnany explained it was COVID-19 cases.
Then Baldwin moved to a piano on stage and accompanied himself as he sang quietly: Macho, macho man. Ive got to be a macho man. Its to remind you who I really am, said Baldwins Trump.
He wrapped up: Im not going to say goodbye, America. Im just going to say, See you in court!
The piano bit recalled Kate McKinnons moving elegy Hallelujah four years ago after Hillary Clintons defeat.
CNNs Wolf Blitzer (Beck Bennett) started off the cold open announcing Bidens win. God damn it that feels good! he said.
